As you can see from the latest Postcard, they are all now in Brisbane, Australia.
Diana & I had a long telephone chat with Louise yesterday (over a hour) and then they were in an Auckland hotel room for their last night before leaving the next morning at 6.30am for the airport for their flight to Auz. They would have got there about 1am our time this morning. Louise said that they had all had a really fantastic time in New Zealand, doing lots of activity things and seeing some really amazing sights. The only drawback seems to have been the fact that it was very cold as it was NZ winter time. They were all looking forward to getting to Australia for the warmer weather and to settle down somewhere fairly quickly as their money is running out and they need to get some work for a while to boost up the funds again before they go off on more adventures. We will see!!!!!!!!!. Di & Rog xxx

Hi Lou Lou, HAPPY EEYORE DAY!! xx

Hey Claire,

I'm fine babe, glad to hear your well and having fun with your medical parties!! hmm I won't ask he he, I'm missing all you lovely lot too, not the job though!! The skydive was amazing babe and you seriously have nothing to worry about, I was nervous before I went up on the plane but honestly it's more enjoyable then scary.

After skiing and boozing in Queenstowwn, we made our way east to Milford Sounds we did a boat cruise and saw dolphins, the scenary was absolutely beautiful!! look it up on the net I'm sure it will be on there. After we made our way to a city called Dunedin and went to Cadbury World, where the 2nd largest factory in the world was, it was well tasty!!

Then we made our way to Christchurch, we went to a Mauri concert, hich is NZ native people, it was very interesting and culteral. Yest we made our way up to a pretty little town called Kaikora, and today we went whale watching, we've just got back it was so cool! we saw 5 Sperm whales!! it was amazing, and there were loads of dusky dolphins about 600 of them they were all so acrobatic, I'm actually going swimming with them tomorrow!! bit scared don't know why I'm sure it will be brilliant!!

So thats me up to date, we're heading back to Christchurch after my encounter with the Dolphins, to have some fun for the last couple of days then fly back to Auckland on Monday and then to Brisbane on Tuesday!! I'm really excited abut the warm weather and relaxed pace of life and to make some money as the funds are low!! And how it pains me to tell you my tan has indded faded!! not happy but 10 months to go for topping it up!! he he.

Turkey sounds good fun, something to look forward to! Any goss on the man front? It's soooo nice to hear from you, anyway babe take care of yourself, love ya, oh and say hi to everyone for me!!

P.S how did that walk with you and Freya go?? xxxxx

Hi guys, Sorry i missed you vic when you rang the other night. But David Cassidy and Davis Essex amoung others called. Concert was great for all the teenyboppers over 40!!!! David Essex was the best of the bunch. Osmonds needed Donny and the Bay City Rollers were OK. Pooky had his prom last night, went out looking very smart. Weather is damp and drizzly today after all the sunshine we have had. Should warm up again for the wek end. Glad to hear you are all enjoying yourselves still. Love to you all mum

Hi Mummy Sandie I spoke to Amy on Sunday and she said they will be making their way to do some whale watching so will be doing a lot of driving this week. I think you should smack her bum though for not being in touch. I'll be round soon for that hug and chicken, don't forget the stuffing 'else there'll be trouble! xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Where are you?............................................... Have not spoken to you for 10 days..........................! Mum xx

Hi Ya Lou!!
Sorry I've not been in touch for a While Hun - How's you, Amy and Vic??
I've been looking at your Pics on the Website, they look amazing - New Zealand looks fantastic!! Can't believe you did your Skydive before me!! What was it like, should I be nervous?? Mine' s not till August so I've got some time to Gather Dutch Courage!!
Hope your feeling better too Hun!! So, what's the News in Blighty!! Well, not much to be honest!! I went to a Doctors & Nurses party last weekend (Very good fun!!) It's been really hot here too, so every chance I get, I'm out in the Sunshine - I bet it's not a patch on your Tan though!!
I've just booked my next Holiday too - I'm off to Turkey for a week in July with my Friend Katie, so hopefully it'll be another oppurtunity to top up the Tan!!
What other things have you been upto then?? The Glacier Walking looked great - I bet you had to wrap up warm for that one!!
Work's just the same really - Hope your thinking of us all here, cos we're missing ya!!
Better go Hun, Take Care and Keep in Touch...Love Claire x x x x

G'day Amy how's it goin? Fuji looked beautifull. Didn't you look glamorous on that Horse who would have thought it eh? That bungy jump looked a bit scary what stopped you coming out of those sleeping bags? And more importantly are they cleaned every time afterwards?? Still missing you here it is very quiet without you. Take care. Em x

Hi mummy Amz here, Well Lou is much better thank you for asking, Vic loves the cooking as long as i always use my majic ingredient...... CHEESE!!!! We've had it with every meal since we've been away!! As you know we went Skiing the other day is was wicked and decided to have a night out on the town last night!!!!! (Din't get in untill 7 this mornin! We have all been feeling the effects of the Vodka and the fact that we've only had 2 hrs sleep! We were rudely awakened this mornin by Dave from the council banging our house down to tell us to move on!! We were told to get out of town so Vic decided to drive us up a snowy mountain road with black ice!!! We our now safe and sound at a holiday park to get some rest as we are on our way to Milford Sound tomorrow.
Oh and the reason why i was in the gents mum was coz the ladies had run out of toilet paper!! he he

Will speak soon, Vic and Lou send thier love. love you mummy. Amy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Guys. I have just got in from Golf, it has taken me 3 1/2 hours to play 7 holes. Should I give up now!!!!!. If I play 18 holes I shall have to take a tent!!!!!!!!!!Never mind it was good fun.

Amy why were you in the mens toilets!!!!!!!!?. I hope you pulled the chain!!!!!!!!!!!. Also the rooms and beds that we have seen on the website look quite tidy !!!!!!.
